Fact Sheet - The State of Sanitation Services in Mocuba, Mozambique Micaela Rodrigues (2024)

Mocuba, situated in the Zambezia province of Mozambique, is undergoing substantial urban growth and development, ranking 11th among the most populated cities in Mozambique according to the 2017 census, with an urban Municipal population of approximately 115,000 people. Effective sanitation services are essential for ensuring public health and hygiene in rapidly expanding communities like Mocuba. During the development of city-wide sanitation plan, an initiative by SNV as part of the Small-Town Sanitation project, led by PSI and funded by USAID, we spoke with local sanitation workers, including the only private desludging truck operator and a group of manual emptiers. Their insights provide a clear picture of the current state of sanitation services, the challenges they face, and their plans for future improvements.
